FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
While the ABZORB technology offers excellent cushioning, these trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual athletic wear, inspired by running styles. For marathon running, specialized performance running shoes are recommended.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the size guide provided by New Balance or the retailer. Generally, measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it with the size chart. These trainers are listed in UK adult sizes.
What is the primary difference between ABZORB cushioning and ABZORB SBS pods?
ABZORB provides continuous cushioning and shock absorption throughout the midsole, while ABZORB SBS pods are specific areas of enhanced cushioning, often placed in high-impact zones, to provide targeted comfort and support.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
The mesh upper is not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to rain or wet conditions is not recommended as it can affect comfort and material longevity. Consider using a water-repellent spray if planning to wear in damp conditions.
What makes the Aminé collaboration special?
This collaboration features a unique colorway and co-branded details, including an embroidered heel logo and a tongue label, reflecting Aminé's creative input and making these trainers a collector's item.
Is the green color accurately represented online?
Screen settings can affect color perception. However, the product description and images aim to accurately represent the vibrant green mesh and glossy overlay colors. The actual color may vary slightly in different lighting conditions.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel difficult to tighten or loosen.
Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets and not twisted. Try lacing them with a different pattern or replacing them with a different type of lace if they are worn.
Slight stiffness upon first wear.
This is normal for new trainers. Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in. The ABZORB cushioning will adapt to your foot shape over time.
Discoloration on the glossy overlays.
Wipe gently with a damp microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish. For stubborn marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for synthetic shoe materials.
Unusual squeaking sound.
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the sole components or moisture. Try inserting a talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole. Ensure the shoes are completely dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Designed for adult unisex wear, these trainers are generally compatible with most casual and athleisure outfits. They are suitable for various foot shapes, though individuals requiring significant arch support might consider additional insoles.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the mesh and synthetic overlays, use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to gently remove dirt. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
- Lining and Insoles: If removable, clean insoles separately with a damp cloth. Ensure the interior is dry before wearing.
- Sole Cleaning: Use a damp cloth or a specialized shoe cleaner to wipe down the midsole and outsole. Stubborn dirt on the pods may require a soft brush.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to maintain their shape and prevent dust accumulation.
